Football managers usually get sacked when clubs get desperate. At Manchester United, it may be the other way round. United are desperate, all right. Desperate not to go back to square one.

This is where we are with United. Amorim’s team are unfathomably poor to the point where we are almost immune to it and accepting of it.

Everybody’s still talking about the fight, and it’s five days later,” Roach said. “It’s been a huge spectacle, a topic of discussion – the review by the commission and

Emma Raducanu will begin a trial period with Slovakian coach Vladimir Platenik when she plays her first-round match at Indian Wells on Thursday. The 49-year-old was coaching Lulu Sun when the New Zealand qualifier beat Raducanu in the fourth round of Wimbledon last July. Platenik worked with compatriot Dominika Cibulkova when she reached the semi-finals of the French Open in 2009, and has also coached Russians Daria Kasatkina and Veronika Kudermetova. Loughborough Academy coach Tom Welsh agreed to join Raducanu for Indian Wells, but that was billed as a one-off arrangement. Raducanu, who has been without a permanent coach since Nick Cavaday stood down for health reasons after January’s Australian Open, plays Japan’s Moyuka Uchijima in her opening Indian Wells match. “I don’t want to rush into anything, but I’m

College basketball is receiving the bulk of attention in collegiate sports right now, with both the men’s and women’s NCAA tournaments right around the corner.
